QGIS I would like to get a Getting single point from a polygon Centroid if within the polygon or any point if not using QGIS

I am trying to generate label points from my polygons. The Polygon->Centroid works great except that if the centroid happens to land in a hole it is still returned. I need to get a single point (Centroid if that point is within the polygon) a point within the polygon if the centroid happens to be outside of the polygon.

Thank you,
